This is explored in detail through both practical guidance for implementing such techniques as well as through an accessible introduction to the theoretical and pedagogical issues that underpin its use, supported by case studies. The text provides an introduction for university teachers interested in using approaches such as the flipped classroom, and offers discussion on how to quantify activities within classrooms through observation tools, and what the future of teaching large classes might look like.Key FeaturesProvides a practical guide to effective teaching of large classes in STEM subjects at university levelTakes an evidence-based approach and synthesises the theoretical and pedagogical issues that are important for teachers to understandProvides an overview of the literature supporting active learning approachesDiscusses the flipped classroom, strategies for introducing interactivity into classes, and the use of technology such as electronic voting systemsIncludes the role of assessment in large classesProposes a view of the future of large classes, including the role of hybrid teaching Author Biography Dr Anna Wood is an education researcher at the University of Edinburgh.
